I have the same problem with energy saving spiral light bulbs using
x10 lamp module or appliance module. I think some spiral bulbs sent a
noise signal which affect x10 functionality (nowhere is mention that
in the user guide)
When using a lamp module and the lamp module is off, the bulb is
flashing.
When using apliance module and the module shitch off, the apliance
module is set back on automatically after less than 1 sec.. So I can
not put the apliance module to on.
